Venkat Sivaprakash

Management Consultant at Accenture

Has significantly improved document-driven workflows and reduced processing time across finance and HR functions

Automation Anywhere has evolved significantly and upgraded itself to provide agentic AI and AI-based automation solutions for document automation. The product has matured considerably over time. We can create workflows that can call an API. We can include prompts in particular workflows for ChatGPT-related functions, connecting to an LLM and RAG to perform tasks. For document automation, modern features are available to train documents, ensuring high accuracy and repeatability over time. The system is very easy to use. I recently completed a course in document automation, typically designed for people involved in coding and technical aspects. Though I understand coding comprehensively, I don't do actual coding. The course was very accessible. Currently, extensive coding isn't necessary due to the hybrid model incorporating GenAI aspects, low-code, no-code capabilities, APIs, and numerous pre-built objects in Automation Anywhere. The features include GenAI-driven prompting methods and workflow creation capabilities. In these workflows, we can create decision boxes and call APIs without coding. We simply pull objects, drop them, connect them, and add minimal coding when needed. The most crucial aspect isn't coding but rather sizing the automation and fleshing out the details. Automation Co-pilot takes notes and performs automated analysis. It can extract details from videos, summarize conversations, and provide detailed information. During calls, it identifies instructions and performs tasks such as preparing reports and reconciliation. Automation Anywhere can also connect with Microsoft Co-pilot. Through Co-pilot, real-time operations can be executed, allowing direct interaction between vendors and automation through this component.

Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions

I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It helped agents process tickets with minimal errors and improved average handling time as they are able to close the tickets faster."

"In most of the use cases, both time and cost are being saved, which is the reason they are using these automations."

"Scalability is one of the best things about most of the RPA bots. Once you create one, scalability is just about multiplying them."

"With Automation Anywhere, it has become very easy for us to do invoice billing. It has saved us about 80% of the time."

"We are automatizing redundant activities, releasing employees to do value-added activities."

"Before, there was about four to five resources to extract it, now, with automation, this has helped us reduce the time to two to three minutes, then the work will be done."

"In terms of monetary savings, we automated a bot in three days that has saved us $30,000 in costs."

"Security is a top priority for us. To be allowed to automate different processes, we need to have a good set of controls around who is allowed to do what, and what credentials people can and can't use. It allows us to manage access make sure that we have full control."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"Automation Anywhere is a very good solution if you're looking to expand all your work areas."

"The most valuable feature of BotFarm is the fact that we can use escalations when we need more computer power to fulfill all embargo that we receive in one day."

"Automation Anywhere provides and facilitates cloud service, which means you can access your license from anywhere, easily executing and developing your bots from anywhere in the world."

"The solution is easy to use and easy to apply."

"The web interface that was introduced in the recent version helps because you are not dependent on any particular system."

"They recently released the newest version that has a good program flow, quality, and blueprints that are all good improvements to the automation, and they also have good integration with SAP."

"The solution seems to offer high stability. We haven't seen any bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze."

"The most valuable feature is the interface, which helps to provide a good user experience."

More BotFarm pros

"Operational efficiency has increased more than 50 to 60 percent."

"The number of commands it gives us to edit and modify is really good. It also captures screen activities and plays them back."

"It has been a great value-add for us personally and easy to use."

"The thing that we find the most value in is the Process Discovery component and the ability to really see what users are doing on a day-to-day basis. We're starting to make sense of the processes that they're doing and getting visibility into what they're doing. Overall, the Process Discovery is very good."

"It's very seamless to interact with Excel files and web app pages."

"We use Kryon Studio to develop new wizards and we use the features to capture elements from the screen and automate processes... The screen capture allows us to interface with systems which don't have an API, or where the API is very expensive, and it allows us to do on-screen integration."

"Kryon RPA is very stable - we've not had many disruptions, and the product is updated regularly."

"We use PowerBuilder as our application building codex. Kryon adds flexibility when we have the functionality of SQL, where we can take sets of data out of the back-end and run complex computations or do a bunch of data validations inside the wizard. It can save us sometimes dozens of steps, then if we were to try and do those same reviews using the user interface completely. The balance that we get from using Kryon RPA, alongside being able to screen scrape and frequent screen, gives us an advantage that we haven't had previously with any of our other attempts at robotic process automation."

More Nintex RPA pros

Cons

"One area for improvement in Automation Anywhere (AA) is its monitoring system. It's not that good. Both scalability and stability are also areas for improvement in the tool."

"I would definitely say Citrix automation is one area we have continued to struggle with for the last two months."

"We would like it to be more user-friendly."

"One way Automation Anywhere can be improved is in ticketing."

"Version 11 is a bit heavy. At times, it takes a toll on the computing resources."

"20 percent of the bots need to supervised because sometimes errors occur during the run. Most of the errors that I have encountered have been because the object cloning did not capture the buttons properly."

"As a developer, I would like to have copy commands available from one bot to another."

"Sometimes, the recorder from Automation Anywhere does not work well and is inaccurate. This should be improved."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"The new version is not very stable. Sometimes I can't use the recording sound."

"It should be easier to create an environment for bots to operate in. There should be more support for developing in environments such as Citrix and Linux."

"The user experience could be made a little better with this solution. I find it difficult to find qualified people to be able to use the solution."

"The dashboard needs improvement. For Bot Farm, the visualization is not that good compared to the main Automation Anywhere dashboard."

"The implementation isn't straightforward. It's a bit complex in terms of deployment as there are a lot of settings you need to handle."

"The licensing schemes could be more competitive. They need to be much more flexible in their pricing."

"Sometimes I feel like it doesn't work properly and we are not able to provide the dexterity needed."

"The only challenge that we have faced with BotFarm is that there is no continuous deployment."

More BotFarm cons

"We have found some difficulties regarding the integration with legacy systems where the screen has elements in the Hebrew language. The connection to Hebrew, right-to-left systems, is more challenging."

"I would expect that in the first year there is no ROI. It has to be measured over three or five years."

"We would like to see having a little more specific documentation, or some of the examples be easier to find. One of the big things that we get directed to now is the Kryon Community page, but a lot of that wasn't in existence or publicized when we started doing our training and education. Now, we're stumbling through using it. For the majority of the time, we have either had to try and interpret what the instructions meant or do a service desk ticket."

"I would improve the object recognition features, making it not linked to the screen resolution or the position."

"With the customer support, there have been some times where we have had to go through explaining the issue a couple times because it has gone through a couple of people's hands. There have been a couple of scenarios where we have had to re-explain the issue and bring somebody new up to speed on what is going on or what the problem is."

"It would be better to have [upgrades] done automatically, like an application on your smartphone. Or even if done manually, the upgrade should just be "next, next, next," and it's upgraded, rather than making it a project to upgrade."

"It could be more reliable in spying HTML."

"Extracting meaningful data requires significant effort. You need a dedicated business analyst who can understand the output."

More Nintex RPA cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our annual licensing costs for the entire company are $100,000."

"The cost is anywhere between $10,000 and $100,000."

"This is a comprehensive automation offering with a scalable architecture and flexible pricing models."

"AA comes at a more affordable price than the other tools."

"We have a few licenses. They cost roughly $10,000 each."

"It costs up to $1,200 per license."

"The current pricing for Automation Anywhere seems a little higher compared to competitors Power Automate or UiPath. Automation Anywhere is perceived as pricey due to the support model charges ranging from 20% to 30% based on the plans."

"The pricing that we received from Automation Anywhere in the beginning was very economical for us. We've seen a lot of benefit from what we spent to what we're receiving. From the beginning, it's been a very low-cost implementation for us."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"Automation Anywhere is more reasonable than Blue Prism and UiPath in terms of cost."

"The pricing model could be simplified."

"The starter price is free."

"We pay approximately $15,000 USD per year."

"The license of this solution is on an annual basis. The price is fair. However, what we did initially was a POC, but now we are looking at moving from a POC to expanding it out further. I would appreciate some kind of discount."

"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."

"I think payment can vary but it's a re-occurring fee that needs to be paid every year."

"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."

More BotFarm pricing and cost advice

"We're paying in the neighborhood of about $66,000 a year. The cost is fairly similar to its competitors' costs. It might have been a little bit more reasonable than the others, and that cost was with Process Discovery in addition."

"Licensing costs are about $100,000 a year without any additional costs."

"Can't beat the price... There are different pricing levels for every bot or unattended bot. You can buy however many you want. You'll need an additional virtual machine for it to work on."

"The product has reasonable pricing."

"It is very cheap. I would rate the pricing a three out of ten, with ten being expensive."

"In addition to the standard licensing costs, there are manpower costs."

"Compared to its competitors, Kryon RPA's pricing is very competitive."

"They license per robot and we have 25 robots. You get so many robot licenses and can allocate those licenses to either attended, unintended, or Process Discovery bots. If you have 25 licenses, for example, you could have 20 automation bots and five process discovery. This allocation is flexible. There are also maintenance costs."
